These pads work well for removing algae from my aquarium glass. The white color helps me see when the surface is clean. No damage to the tank, and they’re easy to use. I’ve used them on both glass and acrylic sides.

Great product for regular algae maintenance. I use one pad per cleaning session and they last longer than expected. The visibility of the white pad helps me monitor cleaning progress.
